    Genson, i used to partly hang about with him when i was younger, about 8 years ago. Sad really, and i dont think that we will hear the end of that so soon. Severe reprucussions (sp) for who ever shot him if they find out who done it

    Thanks chaps but will edit soon. But on checking with my daughter who says that schools are being told to stay inside by police. How true I am not sure.

    I dont think that has anything to do with a shooting in Greenwich i believe there are some kids internet rumours that St columbas and Blackheath  Bluecoats are due to meet up... so may be police being cautious. (i feel embarrassed just typing that).

    Apologies to Falonwood_1 for copying his post from Welling Stabbing thread but this is I think relevant here




    This is how these incidents affect people in the area it happens. Just go this emailed from my boy's school:


    "Dear Parents,


    Further to my earlier email concerning the incident in Welling last Friday, we have limited information, but have since discovered that there is a possibility of an organised disturbance in Welling later today.


    Anyone wishing to collect their children before the end of the school day can do so."

    Rumour is a BNP march at 3pm, that's why they're clearing the schools out.

    Hmm  BNP march in Welling. Sounds like 1990ish all over again.

    Dont these marches need to be applied for anyway ?

    Violence wise, Welling has had a fairly quiet few years. Not too much trouble like this.

    I knew the lad, lived just round the corner and I used to see him around kidbrooke a lot, a real shame.

    Yes you have to inform the police who many, where, what for etc etc. This needs to be down a good month or so in advance and the police are very quick to come down on those who do not warn them of protests.

    I am very worried about this.  I am stuck in town and my (young) family live just down the road in Wickham Street.  Does anyone have any news no this?  I called the police but they did not want to talk to me.

    I think there are two different conversations going on in this thread.

    But Strasburger according to a post on twitter Welling is swarming with police so everyone should be fairly safe.

    So am i. I dont know what your pals family have been through recently no. I assume Genson was the cause. When i used to hang around with him he was a decent kid. If you were cool to him, he was cool with you. Agreed, he was no angel, but i dont see how being a bully deserves death?

    Why was your pals kid coming into contact with Genson? From what i remember before, Genson wouldnt cause anybody harm for no reason. Im not assuming your pals kid is a trouble maker etc, but for a 23 year old to feel he has to tell a 15 year old that he runs the town, its his manor, respect your elders etc is a bit strange. I see no reason for an innocent 15 year old to come into contact with him.

    Regardless of what he has done (within reason) i dont feel he deserves to die, and your 'good riddance' is a bit disrespectful when you dont really know him. Seems a bit of an immature comment to make tbh

    also regardless of what you thought of him, this is a police investigation and your comments might be looked at by the police as they search the internet for motives. 

    People should be careful what they say on here. dont want to get admin in trouble.
